What Do They See?

Do they see Jesus in me? Joy Williams 



First of all I have to give a shout out to Ross for giving me hot water! I pray you will be encouraged by the writings! I have to say hello to this super nice lady named Mora who was in line yesterday at Starbucks. She got me hot water! Thank you also to Angie and Bridget. Yesterday it was taking forever for me to get my iced caramel macchiato. 50%  after 2 yesterday:-) So thank you ladies for being super nice and accepting my card! I pray you will be encouraged by all of the writings! 

Okay, time to do the writing for Friday. Okay, I totally did not think I was going to be writing about this today. You all know that I do my makeup at Starbucks. Manly to practice my dexterity and I'm not very good anymore with my legsso trying to make use of my ability to have good coordination. It's like a
shock to people when I tell them or if I show them the final results. I think I scare my one caregiver, Brandice, when I put my eyeliner under my eye. It's scary to watch that part, yes cuz it always looks like I'm going to hit my eye. And, yes I did before. But, it was all good.

Anyway, back to what I wanted to write about today. So, I was at the part where I'm looking in the mirror making sure I was doing my makeup right. I didn't want to look like a clown. Lol :-) And, the homeless guy me said, "Do I like what I see?" He was a nice homeless man. Some of them are nice. Then again some of them aren't. Like the other day this dude asked me for money and I said nicely, " I don't have cash." Then, this man raised his voice and said,  YOU DON'T GOT 2 DOLLARS?! Believe you me I could have said something else in a different tone and kind of sounded really mean. But I didn't. I just nodded my head no and went back to my writing. Next time that happens, I'm probably going to scream I don't even have a job! So, how do you think I make money? Do you want the money the government gives me? Look at me! Im Wheelchair-bound! That would make him leave me alone I bet! lol

Pause break caregiver is not here yet. So thank you Jeannie for getting me my hot water. And pray that you will be encouraged by the writings! Of course when the door opened the wind blew my garbage bag on the floor. But thank you for getting it for me. Zach, I pray will be encouraged by the writings! Start the day with encouragement!

So, the nice homeless man asked me if I like what I saw when I looked in the mirror. Now the question that is going around in my mind is this. What do people see when they see me? And, do I like what they see. Do other people like what they see in me? Do they see Jesus in me?

I go to Starbucks a few times a week. I don't know everyone here. I'm pretty tight with the workers. This business man man type Kevin stopped and said good morning to me. And, Scott stuff and just handed with me!

I definitely want people to see Jesus in me. Question for Sam and maybe others is this

" Is the face that I see in the mirror, the one I want others to see? Do I show in the way that I walk in my life, the love that you've given to me. My heart's desire is to be like you you know I'm going to do I am."
